So was there a data breach at Amazon? Last night their subreddit got flooded with thousands of people saying they recieved direct emails from them thanking them for buying gift cards, today news stories are following up on that. The strange thing is Amazon reps are telling customers different stories from: These aren't official emails (they are), an intern made a mistake, it was just an attempt to "test" users security, and there was a partial breach but data is safe.
Feels like the are hiding how bad it is.
>An intern made a mistake
Let me guess, pajeet programmers forgot to plug a security leakage...
Can this mistake be redeemed?
She stop talking about it Jim and I will throw you a few gift cards...damn...
having more than one story explaining what happened is a classic tell of panic; lacking a rational organized response they will offer several reasons instead in the hopes that one of them will be satisfactory and believed.
Ruh roh. Now the internet is gonna know how much cringe I have purchased over the years.
